    Mushy slopes not vertical faces unfortunately. Love to see super tubes when it's really hollow and at it's best, but that's contest surfing! Both AI and Kelly surf so well, it's great to see them in a match up final!! Kelly's wave he surfed well, but not that great, but falling off during the ride, weather it's mid way through or at the end like Kelly did, no way is worth a 9.5 or whatever they gave him, and definitely AI should have won, and the comments reflect this!!!! Miss Andy Irons so very much!!! I'm older than him, and born and raised in Hawaii on the N. Shore of Oahu and have been surfing my whole life, and where the Irons bros grew up, I spent most of my time living there and surfing. It was great to watch them as kids progress into some of the best surfers in Hawaii and the world!!! Also watching Kelly from his first time he came to surf country on Oahu when he was a kid and the waves were far too powerful and big for him the n, but over the years he got really good in surfing Hawaii and Pipeline in particular!!! Now, the level of surfing especially in Hawaii on the N. Shore of Oahu, by the next generation of surfers, combined with the progression of surfboard shaping and design is just continuing to get better than the last!!! It's amazing!!! I was surfing so well in my 40's into my 50's, and Kelly is doing it also!!! I'm sure AI would be blowing minds today!! His brother Bruce certainly does!!! Miss him... AI forever!!!

    No doubt Andy Irons won this heat you can't give a 9.5 falling at your last maneuver!!! It's been a shame from the judges!!! For sure Andy Irons would have won his 4th world title if it wasn't for this silly way of judging! It would be good if Kelly could admit it sincerely. So i give 4th world titles to Andy Irons and 10 for Kelly but who knows how Kelly's and Andy's future would have gone if they had rightly given the victory to Andy Irons!!!!!!!!!!!!!
